    Well, there it is. The Bay Area has more confirmed cases than Portland, but I wouldn't be surprised to see tomorrow's game with the Grizzlies played in an empty arena.

    I would. Warriors not playing in front of fans wasn’t really the NBAs decision.

    why even play in the arena? set up cameras at the practice facilities. Fewer people, cheaper to run probably.

    I think the league is taking this very seriously, even if Oregon's government officials are still too mired in politics and political correctness to do much yet. According to ESPN, the NBA is considering moving games to arenas in areas where the virus isn't widespread yet. That could mean playing at the opponent's arena or a neutral site. Although Memphis hasn't had many cases yet, there likely wouldn't be time to move the game from Moda by tomorrow night. I guess we'll see soon what the league does, but I'm just saying it wouldn't surprise me to see an empty arena.

    Omaha and Kansas City have great arenas.
